Ok I'm showing my age now but here's all the presenters of Top Gear that I can remember. Can anyone else remember them or even remember any more?

Also who's your favourite? I mean obviously Clarkson is a legend but for some reason I always liked Steve Berry, maybe it was because of his Lancashire accent.

William Wollard



Chris Goffey



Tony Mason



Quentin Wilson



Steve Berry



Tiff Needell



Vicki Butler Henderson



Jason Dawe




Jeremy Clarkson



James May




Richard Hammond

 
Yep, remember them all. William Wollard, one leg on the bumper talking about 'the oily bits' :D

Jason Dawe was useless, and I can't stand Quentin Wilson, I just get the urge to pummel his arrogant face, hard.

Bizzarely though I kind of like Steve Berry, and he should be deeply annoying :confused:

William Wollard - Yep

Chris Goffey - Yep

Tony Mason - Yep

Quentin Wilson - Yep - older idiot

Steve Berry - Yep - idiot can't present to save his life

Tiff Needell - Yep - can only go sideways

Vicki Butler Henderson - Yep, once attractive now getting Fat and Ugly

Jason Dawe - Yep, biggest idiot this side of the known universe

Jeremy Clarkson - Yep

James May - Yep

Richard Hammond - Yep

All the current presenters are my fav atm, may might just swing it due to his other cool tv shows.
 
Yes to all except Quentin and Steve.

My favourite for entertainment would have to be Clarkson, however most of them have there good and bad points.

Clarkson - Good entertainer, however watching him go sideways at 100mph while shouting about POOWEEERR gets a little tiresome.

Vicki - Good driver, a good change to have a female presenting a motoring program, however her personality sometimes gets on my nerves somehow.

Tiff - Astounding driver, excellent reviewing ability and also has the ability to entertain, although he can sometimes seem a little boring to watch.

May - Fun as a presenter, however needs to be given more oppurtunity to review what he's good at, classics and more 'limoey' (New word) type cars, such as Rolls and Maybach's etc.

Yeah

back in the old days of Chris Goffey, top gear was just a programme about cars. Then the likes of Tiff Needell joined and they started testin super cars and fast cars too. The BBC were seen to be encouraging speeding and the series was axed.

It was at this point, that vbh, quentin wilson, tiff needell all jumped ship to channel 5, and 5th gear was born

BBC then got rather annoyed that 5th gear was stealing the ratings. So the new format top gear was born. Didnt the annoying jason dawe only last 1 series before hammnd was drafted in ?

He only lasted one series (one too many if you ask me) but Hammond was there from the start, it was James May who replaced Jason Dawe.

According to wikipedia, he did indeed leave after season 1, I thought he was around longer than that :confused:
